Most golfers know that their game could always be a little better. No matter how great of a player you are, you can always be a little better. The easiest way for that to happen is by mastering the golf swing basics. The best place to start is with your grip.
Many players don't realize that their grip isn't quite right. Your grip is essential to your golf swing. Do you become nervous when you step out on the green? You want to drive the ball as far as possible, but you may be unsure of how to make that happen. The key is the golf swing basics. A big part of those basics is your grip on the club.
Do not grip the club tightly. You want a loose grip, but not too loose that you cannot hang on to the club. You can also slice the ball if your grip is too light. A relatively light grip will allow you to have better control over your swing. You will also be able to swing more freely.
If you begin to get nervous, you may want to pay closer attention to your grip. When you get nervous it is easy to grip a little too tightly. Clear your mind and focus on the game. Ignore everything that is going on around you and keep your head in the game.
Do you want to be able to make birdies or par at every hole? If so spend some time going back to the fundamentals of your swing. In no time you can have a better golf game and start shaving points off of your score.
